| Abstract
|
:
|
"With contributions from leading scholars from six countries, Cinema Taiwan provides extensive discussion of developments in storytelling, styles and socio-political transformation to represent a new maturing of film theory, history and analysis in Taiwan scholarship. The book examines complex problems of popularity, conflicts between transnational capital and local practice, non-fiction and independent filmmaking as emerging modes of address, as well as new opportunities to forge vibrant film cultures embedded in Taiwanese (identity) politics, gender/sexuality and community activism. The volume includes a comprehensive filmography, bibliography of essential sources, and a Chinese-language glossary."--Jacket.
